    Tough few fights coming up for AJ if he gets through Ruiz.

    If Ruiz wins I think he either gets an exception to unify with the WBC belt or drops the WBO

    Judging by their statement there is going to be no exemption.

    If Ruiz (wins then) vacates then it would leave Usyk as mandatory and Whyte in #1 spot. So it would be them two battling it out.

    Isn’t pulev also in line for a ibf shot?

    If it finally gets unified the winner will definitely have a lot on their plate

    Usyk
    Pulev
    Whyte
    Probably hunter or miller as well

    Clearly WBO don't want to let Al to hold that WBO belt hostage like he has the WBC for past few years.

    Schwarz was no.2 with WBO

    Frank has massive clout with the wbo.....

    Can’t see Fury going to fight Usyk directly after Wilder.

    Exactly what I was thinking. With Frank's connections, we might see Tyson Fury v Junior Fa for the vacant title or something like that haha.

    There’s not a chance Fury will be made mandatory over Usyk. You seen the statement they've released justifying why it’s Usyk and not Whyte?

    There’s no chance they can back down on that.

    Some absolute rubbish been spouted online about this. People are actually mad because he ISNT having a few warm up fights first. Let the man be great.
